For the most part I don't. I know this seems dumb but honestly for across town trips your not going to save more then 5 minutes tops so is it really worth it????? I'm not saying I go exactly the speed limit but I don't drive like people would expect me to when they ride with me.

So true.. Seems like everyday someone will come flying past me only to be side by side at the next red light.. I find it funny tbh.

Are we talking 100 in a 45 or 55 in a 45... speeding is speeding whether your 5 or 50mph over the speed limit to me. I don't "race" down these roads but I don't usually do more then 10mph over the speed limit

The more I race, the slower I drive on the street. I try to do what motorcycle guys refer to as "The Pace". On back roads I still enjoy the corners, but keep it at 7/10, depending on site distance and entrances. On straight away's I never go over 70 MPH, waiting for the next series of corners. On interstates I speed a little. It depends on traffic. I will follow some fast dude about 1/8 mile back with detectors blazing. I will eventually match his speed. I do back off when passing other cars for safety, then hammer back down. I have found an empty Interstate and blasted to 135 to 145 range for a short periods. When I do stupid stuff in cars I am by myself and don't endanger others.

Only time I speed is when I'm showing someone how awesome 2nd gear is in the Cobalt lol. Just in 2nd I can get to about 60 or 65 MPH. Most the time I'm just cruising cause I do drive a red car and I know I have a huge target stuck to both sides for police to "redeye" me lol. This is why I like auto cross, you can take turns as fast as you want without police trouble and worrying about hitting another car .
